This rogue's gallery of politicians names, coupled with the accured damage on the NJ taxpayer's wallet, conjures up images of Ned Beatty, and the hillbilly in Deliverance. Like the battered spouse syndrome, however, these folks just keep coming back for more, however.

Apvbguy just scrapes the surface, however. The Republicans in the state are almost equally as culpable when it comes to malfeasance. The Christine Whitman EZ-Pass debacle comes to mind immediately.

What are you talking about? The one time head of the NJ mob lived right on Ocean Blvd. In AH, you must be a nubie to NJ.

BTW I lived in AH when he did, many years ago.

Sorry apvbguy, but you started with the F word, so Giantone was justified. Awful lot of places you are at one time.

I like that answer "I'm from Joizee." But in this area I'd get a blank stare. I feel silly saying "you guys" alla time. But it's habit, can't stop.
